Ever wonder why your favorite foods change as you get older? Join Extension to explore the five basic tastes—sweet, salty, sour, bitter, and umami—and learn how your palate evolves throughout life. We’ll dive into how smell and taste work together, why aging affects flavor, and even the psychology behind what we like to eat. Plus, get tips on making food taste better using color and spices!

This event will take place in the Community Meeting Room (lower level) at Pana Community Hospital.
